I agree...I've had reindeer too (in Sweden). Nice. Also, back in Canada...elk, deer, oh and bison...I miss it! I used to buy bison every week from the farmer's market. One of the vendors sold the tastiest bison smokies.

Hey, re: wild meat...I saw kangaroo for sale in Woolies. What's up with that? Is it farmed or roadkill...or??

Yeah...I have a recipe for meatballs from a genuine Swedish cookbook (it's actually written in Swedish) and the homemade ones are completely different...

I don't think they'd use road kill It's generally farmed although you can probably get wild from some butchers. Can't stand it myself but then I don't like any 'gamey' meat.

We may be boring but at least we're not short. Oh, and just for the record, neither my Canadian born husband nor I like either ice hockey or Molson beer.

OK You got my feathers in a knot!! I have lived my whole life in Canada and don't like hockey.. only seen a couple of "moose" plural "moose" and...yeah... ok we tend to be alittle boring. But VERY NICE.... Kindest people around wherever you go. I am very proud to be a Canadian on my way to being an Australian.

Do moose have feathers then?


Welcome to BE by the way

You'll have to excuse Bernie. He's Irish.

Have you joined the Canadians Heading to Australia thread? If not, check it out. There's tons of info there as well as connections to a few other Hosers. There are 3 of us that I can think of off the top of my head who are also in Perth, so you won't be the only one in WA.

We are not!!!!!!

Exactly - you have to love canadians no matter how crazy we seem to be.....

Are,that's why yer all moving to WA,most boring part of OZ

Not me sweetie, I love canada......

We're here to liven the place up.

Have to correct you on this one. Biggest selling beer in OZ is that VB crap! XXXX full strength and Bitter are ok, the Gold is shite. Most Aussie beer is very disappointing and the actual good ones worth drinking are overpriced.
Thinking about Canadian beers, I didn't used to mind a drop of that Moosehead lager.

ahhhh.... but the English would be talking about a proper sport.
